"A farmer takes the offspring of llamas that have the thickest coats. They only breed those offspring to create a population with thick coats."

Explanation: that's selective breeding (sexual reproduction and selection), not cloning. Cloning produces genetically identical copies (as in the bacteria, tissue grown from a person's cells, or plants from cuttings).
